A monitoring inspection was initiated on 3/15/22 and concluded on 3/31/22. The center director was contacted by telephone to initiate the inspection and an on-site inspection was conducted on 3/31/22 from 10:15am until 11:35am. At the time of the on-site inspection, there were 38 children in care with 7 staff present. A sample of 4 children's records and 4 staff records were reviewed. Children were observed engaging in morning learning activities and free play. Restroom and handwashing procedures were also observed. First aid and emergency supplies, documentation of emergency practice drills, transportation, children's injury reports, the emergency preparedness plan and required center postings were reviewed. Information gathered during the inspection determined non-compliance with applicable standards or law and violations were documented on the violation notice issued to the program.
Based on observation and interview, the center did not ensure that areas and equipment of the center, inside and outside, shall be maintained in a clean, safe and operable condition.
